Julian Lennon clears up Paul McCartney remarks

John Lennon’s son Julian insists he was joking when he recently accused his late dad’s Beatles bandmate Paul McCartney of “snubbing” him.

Singer/songwriter Julian took to his Facebook page last month to apparently blast McCartney for not inviting him to his recent wedding to heiress Nancy Shevell and ignoring him at a reception in New York.

But he has now posted an update on the social networking website to tell fans his comments were a lighthearted joke which snowballed out of control.

He writes, “Seems many have taken my comment from the other week a little too far… It was truly written, hand on heart, with a whimsical heart… The situation was laughable, more than anything… Wasn’t whining… just stating the facts… Obviously people misplace & mistake my sense of humor & character… C’est La Vie.”
